Setting up cost is just one part, operation cost is lagi worse. Those cafe ladies , whom i refer to as `coffee-mate' cost quite a bomb too. You cannot have just 2 or 3 coffee-mates as customers often come because of the SYT coffee-mates. So to have 7 to 10 of them is very normal. 1 coffee-mate monthly salary is minimum 2.8 million VND, so 10 of them will be 28 million VND a month. At the same time, you need another 1 to 2 person to prepare the drinks, if you get one that is trained, you need to pay around 3.5 to 4 million VND a month. Also needed are 2 person to help wash cups and plates, each person 2.5 million VND. So think about it, just salary alone will cost 28 million + 4 Million + 2.5 million + 2.5 million = 37 million VND a month just on salaries. All these are without rental yet. So, its not easy running a cafe.
